    Sarah meets newcomer Kammy

    Mackenzie spies Ross driving a swanky new pick-up round the village. There’s been a spate of local farm machinery thefts and Mack reckons this seems too much of a coincidence.

    After failing to stop a quad bike from being stolen at Butler’s Farm, Mack accuses Ross of nicking it. But has he got the wrong guy?

    Apparently so because later that day Sarah encounters a lad called Kammy who’s struggling to start a quad bike down a lane. Kammy gives Sarah a cover story about the vehicle, leaving her intrigued. There’s a definite spark between the pair as they continue to flirt, but Kammy doesn’t want to be see in the village on the quad. Hmm, we wonder why.

    The newcomer panics when he sees Ross approaching. But whose side will Sarah take?

  • Cain Dingle family tree explained – how Charity and Chas are related to him, who his dad is and all his kids

    Cain Dingle family tree explained – how Charity and Chas are related to him, who his dad is and all his kids

    Cain Dingle is one of the most iconic characters in Emmerdale, and also now head of the biggest family in the village.

    The Dingles have been residents for over 60 years, and their family tree goes back more than 10 generations. Cain has a lot of family in the Dales – from siblings and cousins, to kids and grandchildren.

    But who is who in the Cain Dingle clan? Let’s take a look at his family relations and see how they’re all connected.

    Zak Dingle was Cain’s dad

    Cain – played by Jeff Hordley – grew up thinking Zak was his uncle, but he was actually his real father. Zak had a one-night stand with sister-in-law Faith on Valentine’s Day 1974, which resulted in her falling pregnant with Cain.

    Although Zak knew he was Cain’s dad, his brother Shadrach raised him as his own.

    The truth came out in 2001 when Zak told Cain he was his dad during a violent row. Cain was disgusted by the betrayal and it took a long time for him to accept Zak in his life. Both stubborn and short-tempered, Cain and Zak had a tempestuous relationship. Events came to a head in 2011 when Zak attacked Cain and left him for dead in revenge for his bad behaviour.

    Things did calm down as they got older, and Cain made his peace with his father. Zak sadly died in October 2024 and Cain has assumed his role as head of the Dingle clan.

    Shadrach Dingle

    Shadrach was the man Cain called dad for for the first 26 years of his life. But blood or no blood, he wasn’t much of a father. He was a selfish slob and raging alcoholic who often beat Cain.

    He was also abusive towards wife Faith, which is why she ended up walking out on the family. After she left, Shadrach’s violent outbursts towards Cain became even more frequent.

    Shadrach made a few feeble attempts to get sober, but nothing ever stuck. Chas always had more time for her father, but Cain viewed Shadrach as a pathetic waster. In the end, Shadrach drowned after trying to save his beer cans from a river. An autopsy confirmed he would have died hours later anyway due to a ruptured liver.

    Faith Dingle

    Cain’s mum was the late Faith Dingle, who was also mum to Chas and Caleb.

    The pair had a complicated history after Faith walked out on Cain when he was just 12 years old. Cain vowed he would never forgive Faith for what she did and was furious when she arrived in 2017 to make amends.

    While Chas was able to get past Faith leaving, Cain really struggled. Mum and son’s relationship remained strained, even when Faith was diagnosed with terminal cancer.

    Cain eventually made his peace with his mum during the last moments of her life. After realising she planned to take her own life with an overdose of morphine, Cain rushed to Faith’s side. He cradled his mum and admitted his love for her as she slipped away.

    Chas Dingle

    The most stable and constant presence in Cain’s life has been his half-sister, Chas. They may fight like cat and dog, but their love for one another runs deep.

    Chas and Cain were still kids when their mum Faith walked out and had to learn to stick together. When Chas fell pregnant with son Aaron at just 14, it was Cain who helped provide for them.

    Cain has been Chas’s rock through some of the darkest times in her life, including the discovery that her ex-husband Gordon had abused Aaron over a number of years. He’s also fiercely protective of her and has disapproved of just about every man she’s ever been with. Although her last husband Paddy Kirk did get the seal of approval.

    Chas has been married three times and is set to walk down the aisle again with Cain’s best mate Liam Cavanagh. Let’s hope she doesn’t mess this one up, for all their sakes!

    Cain Sam and Belle

    Sam Dingle

    Soft-hearted Sam is Cain’s younger half-brother and the third son of Zak’s sons. He is also the longest-serving Dingle, having been on our screens for 30 years.

    He and Cain are completely different in personality, but they share a close bond. The Dingle Code is of upmost importance to the brothers, and they don’t take kindly to it being broken.

    In 2023, Cain supported Sam when it was revealed his wife Lydia had been raped by her ex Craig Reed. The brothers held Craig hostage and beat him. Craig eventually died under hooves of Kim Tate’s horse Ice, and Cain left him to die alone instead of calling for help.

    Caleb and Cain in Emmerdale

    Caleb Miligan

    Cain and Caleb are half-brothers, but they did not grow up together. Caleb was the product of an affair Faith had with millionaire businessman Frank Tate.

    The siblings met for the first time in 1991 when Caleb visited the garage where Cain was working. Caleb wanted to establish a relationship, but Cain lied to him that Faith was dead. They went out joyriding and were pulled over by the police. Cain then agreed he would take the rap (he ended up getting three years in prison) as long as Caleb never contacted him again.

    Caleb did not keep to his word and came to the Dales in Christmas 2022 after learning Faith had recently passed away. The brothers’ reunion was not a happy one, and it’s been up and down since then.

    Recently, Caleb attempted to frame Cain for Anthony Fox’s murder after finding out he’d slept with his wife Ruby. Cain warned Caleb he would end up six feet under with Anthony if he ever pulled a stunt like that again.

    Tina Dingle

    Tina is Cain’s half-sister, but they’ve never had much to do with one another. Cain was not impressed when Tina made an unexpected arrival at Zak’s funeral last year.

    He was even less impressed when it transpired Tina was trying to get her mitts on Zak’s money and blackmailing Mandy over her being Vinny’s long-lost mum.

    Cain took his revenge on Tina by setting fire to her caravan and ordered her out of the village!

    Belle Dingle

    Belle is Cain’s youngest sibling and his half-sister through Zak. She was born on Christmas Day 1998 in the pigsty of Wishing Well Cottage.

    Cain has always been incredibly protective of Belle. He’s supported her through some of the toughest times in her life, most recently the horrific abuse she suffered at the hands of Tom King.

    Other brothers

    Cain has/had three other older half-brothers – Nathan, Butch and Ben.

    Nathan is Zak’s eldest son and has never been seen on screen. According to a story once told by Tina Dingle, Nathan disowned the Dingles after they caused a scene at his wedding. He has never been mentioned since that conversation back in 1995.

    Butch was Zak’s second son. His life was tragically cut short in March 2000 when he was fatally injured in a bus crash. Cain’s first appearance was at Butch’s funeral when he came to pay his respects.

    Finally there was Ben, who was Zak’s third lad and the first Dingle to be seen on screen. He was killed during a brawl with the local doctor’s son Luke McAllister back in 1994. Butch and Ben are buried next to one another in the graveyard.

    How Cain’s related to Charity

    Charity is Cain’s second cousin, his on/off ex-lover and the mother of his daughter, Debbie.

    The duo’s iconic love story was a central focus during Cain’s early years in the village. Charity was undoubtedly Cain’s first love. They started a sexual relationship when Cain was 14, and Charity just 12. Debbie was born in October 1989 and put up for adoption.

    Cain and Charity resumed their affair as adults, becoming partners in crime as well as the bedroom. They nearly got married in 2010, but Charity got cold feet at the last minute.

    Their last steamy liaison was 9 years ago, but Cain and Charity have remained mates, who always have one another’s backs.

    Cain’s other cousins

    Marlon Dingle

    Marlon is Cain’s cousin and they have lived in the same village for 25 years.

    Although bonded by blood, Marlon and Cain are completely different characters and not super close. Marlon’s bestie is of course, Paddy Kirk, and together they have created one of soap’s most solid partnerships.

    Marlon has worked as a chef at The Woolpack for almost three decades. He is married to Rhona Goskirk and dad to son Leo and daughter April.

    Mandy looks devastated

    Mandy Dingle

    Motormouth Mandy is a cousin of Cain’s and a complete force of nature.

    The bubbly beautician first arrived in 1995 and has lived in the village on and off over the years. Mandy got wed to Cain’s half-brother Butch, but the marriage did not last long. She’s currently loved up with third husband Paddy Kirk, who she married for a second time last year.

    Mandy has one son, Vinny, who she adopted after his dad, her ex, Paul walked out on them. Vinny’s real mum turned out to be Tina, a secret which she tried to blackmail Mandy with. Mandy’s hardman cousin came to her defence and gave Tina her marching orders from Emmerdale.

    Cain Dingle family: Kids

    Daughter Debbie Dingle

    Debbie is Cain’s eldest child and his only daughter, the result of his teenage romance with Charity.

    The Dingles wouldn’t allow 13-year-old Charity to keep her daughter, so a woman called Pat Jones adopted Debbie. She arrived in the village in 2002 as the the temporary foster child of Paddy and Emily Kirk.

    Realising who Debbie was came as a massive shock to Cain, but he was desperate to be part of her life. His relationship with Debbie was often more stable, whereas Charity and Debbie frequently clashed.

    Debbie had an eventful time in the village, with numerous romances, a few affairs and a stint in prison. She said goodbye to Emmerdale in 2019 after Lisa Dingle left her a garage in Scotland in her will.

    Nate looks concerned in Emmerdale

    Cain’s sons

    Nate Robinson

    Cain’s eldest son Nate was born in 1991 following his fling with barmaid Cara Robinson. Cain never knew of Nate’s existence after Faith coerced Cara into not telling about the baby. Shadrach was a racist and Faith feared he wouldn’t approve of his son having a mixed-race child.

    Nate grew up believing Cain had abandoned him. He came to Emmerdale in 2019 and had an affair with Moira in revenge. Cain discovered the truth and almost killed Nate. During a terrifying showdown on a boat, Nate realised his dad genuinely knew nothing about him.

    The pair eventually made up and Nate made a life for himself in the village, marrying Tracy Shankley and welcoming baby Frankie. However, Cain could never quite get to a place of trust with his son.

    In September 2024, he attacked Nate after wrongly assuming he was sleeping with Moira again. Nate left the village later that day for a new life in Shetland, but we now know he never made it that far. Somone murdered Nate and his body is currently at the bottom bottom of a frozen lake, while the killer remains at large.

    Kyle Winchester

    Kyle came to be after Cain had a fling with 16-year-old Amy Wyatt. When Cain discovered Amy’s pregnancy, he put pressure on her to have abortion, but she refused to proceed.

    Amy hid her pregnancy and gave birth to Kyle in December 2011 by herself in the village cemetery. Kyle initially went to adoptive parents but reunited with Amy and Cain after they died.

    Kyle’s most memorable moment was in 2022 when he shot and killed Cain’s nemesis Al Chapman. Cain took the blame for the crime and served time in prison. He only tasted freedom again after Kyle confessed it was him who pulled the trigger.

    Cain is now trying to help Kyle navigate his grief over Amy’s death.

    Cain Dingle’s youngest son: Isaac Dingle

    Isaac is Cain’s youngest child and his son with Moira.

    He was born in dramatic circumstances back in 2017 after Moira went into labour without realising she was pregnant. Moira initially thought her then-boyfriend Pete Barton was Isaac’s dad, but it later transpired he was Cain’s.

    Cain Dingle family tree extends to grandchildren

    Sarah Sugden

    Sarah is Cain’s granddaughter and the daughter of Debbie Dingle and Andy Sugden.  Debbie gave birth to Sarah when she was 15 after sleeping with 18-year-old Andy.

    Bad health has long overshadowed Sarah’s young life. Aged six she received the diagnosis for fanconi anemia, a rare blood disorder which causes bone marrow failure. The severity of the illness means Sarah has a much shorter life expectancy than most. Sarah also overcame a battle against throat cancer.

    She works with Cain as a mechanic at his garage, Barton and Dingle Automotives, and has definitely inherited her grandad’s rebellious streak.

    Jack Sugden

    Jack is Cain’s grandson through his daughter Debbie. She conceived him as a saviour sibling for Sarah, who needed a life-saving bone marrow transplant.

    Set to celebrate his 13th birthday this year, Jack has not been in the village since 2019. He left for a new life in Scotland alongside mum Debbie and Cain pops up there for the occasional visit.

    Nate and Frankie's last scene together

    Frankie Robinson

    Frankie is Cain’s youngest grandchild and the daughter of his late son Nate.

    Her name is in honour of her mum Tracy’s late father Frank Clayton, who died trying to save her from a fire in 2019. Frankie arrived into the world in February 2021.

    Little Frankie lives with Tracy in Tug Ghyll and Cain plays an active role in her life.

    Cain Dingle family: Nieces and nephews

    Aaron Dingle

    Aaron is Cain’s eldest nephew and the only son of his sister Chas.

    Cain helped support Chas after she had Aaron at 14, and was a father figure for her son. He and Aaron are in some ways like two peas in a pod – both possess the same quick temper and appetite for law-breaking, but are softies underneath it all.

    Their relationship has often been stormy, and violent, but Cain has supported Aaron through thick and thin.

    Samson on the phone in prison looking worried

    Samson Dingle

    Samson is Cain’s nephew and Sam’s only son. He has proved himself to be a troublemaker and schemer.

    He got teenage Amelia Spencer pregnant, but refused to be a father when she gave birth to baby Esther. Samson then suddenly changed his mind, but it transpired he was only doing this to blackmail Noah out of thousands.

    Shocking betrayal struck again when he refused to believe that boss Craig Reed had raped stepmum Lydia.

    Samson finally got his comeuppance after framing Matty Barton for stabbing him. Matty went to prison, but when Samson ‘fessed up what he’d done he received four years behind bars.

    Cain, who has served time himself, gave Samson a crash course in how to survive prison. We wonder if it’s helping?

    Nicky Miligan in Emmerdale

    Nicky Miligan

    Former nanny Nicky is the son of Caleb and Ruby, making him Cain’s nephew by blood.

    He proved he’d inherited the Dingle gene for scamming when he conned Gabby Thomas as part of a bigger plan to get revenge on Caleb’s nemesis Kim Tate.

    Nicky left the Dales last year after discovering his parents had conspired to cover up Ruby running over Ethan Anderson. He departed the village for a new life abroad with boyfriend Suni Sharma and only occasionally gets a mention.

    We think now is the time for Nicky to stage a comeback, don’t you?

    Steph is suspicious in Emmerdale

    Steph Miligan

    Cain’s fiery niece Steph isn’t actually related to him by blood. Cain’s brother Caleb raised her, but we have all since discovered that Steph’s biological father was Anthony Fox.

    Ruby murdered her abusive father, and Cain was one of the five people who helped cover up the crime. But will the truth succeed in tearing the Dingle/Miligan clan apart?

  • Charity Dingle on Emmerdale: teen pregnancy, Mark Bails rape ordeal, romance with Vanessa, and killing Damon Harris

    Charity Dingle on Emmerdale: teen pregnancy, Mark Bails rape ordeal, romance with Vanessa, and killing Damon Harris

    In Emmerdale, Charity Dingle has lived a very turbulent life since first setting foot in the village in 2000.

    From her prior love of an illegal scam and rich men, Charity has evolved into a somewhat responsible woman. Now at the centre of the village as the landlady of the Woolpack, Emmerdale wouldn’t be the same without her.

    Here is a recap of the iconic character’s history.

    Teen pregnancy for Charity Dingle in Emmerdale

    Charity arrived in the village in March 2000 for her cousin Butch’s funeral. From the start, it was clear to see that she was a whirlwind and a force to be reckoned with.

    As her past was explored, it was revealed that she’d had a baby with her second cousin Cain Dingle when she’d been just 13. The daughter, Debbie, was given up for adoption.

    But fate intervened. When Debbie’s adoptive mother fell ill, Debbie just happened to be placed in foster care in the same village her birth mum lived in.

    When Debbie shared a photo of her birth mum with Cain, he was shocked to realise it was Charity. Charity was initially a reluctant mother, but soon her and Debbie bonded. Debbie later moved into Home Farm with Charity and her rich husband Chris Tate.

    Framed for murder

    As Cain and Charity grew closer over their relationship with Debbie, Chris grew increasingly jealous. Chris started to take his anger out on Debbie, resulting in her going to live with the Dingles.

    Charity and Cain soon begun an affair. When Chris found out, he chucked Charity out of Home Farm. Chris soon discovered he had a brain tumour and decided to end his own life.

    However, his final act of revenge was to frame Charity for murder. Charity was found guilty of the crime and sentenced to life in prison. While behind bars, she gave birth to her and Chris’s son Noah.

    Charity was later released from jail after Chris’s sister Zoe presented evidence that Chris had in fact taken his own life. Zoe supplied this evidence after making a deal with Charity that she’d get her out of jail if she could adopt Noah. But Zoe’s adoption application was rejected and Noah stayed with Charity.

    Disastrous marriages to Jai and Declan

    Despite interference from Jai’s brother Nikhil and Charity’s jealous former partner Cain, Jai and Charity managed to tie the knot in 2012. But the marriage quickly begun to struggle when Charity told Jai she didn’t want any more children.

    As a result, Jai had a one night stand with Rachel. The marriage finally came to an end when Charity noticed how close Jai was to Rachel’s baby Archie and realised that he was in fact Archie’s father.

    With the ink barely dry on the divorce papers, Charity married Declan Macey in 2014, making her queen of Home Farm once again. But the relationship was full of lies. After falling pregnant, Charity lied that she’d had a miscarriage during an altercation with Declan’s sister Megan.

    Declan was the dramatic type and decided this kind of betrayal could only be punished by murder. But instead of shooting Charity, he accidentally shot and killed his nephew Robbie instead.

    Rape Ordeal

    Charity’s youth was traumatic. Following her teen pregnancy, Charity ended up on the streets working as a prostitute. During this time, she came across policeman Mark Bails.

    He ended up abusing and raping Charity, as well as pimping her out to his friends. When she was just 14, she gave birth to another child – who we now know to be Ryan Stocks.

    Years later, Charity met DI Bails again when he tried to have her convicted for fraud. Charity decided she couldn’t allow him to harm anyone else, so she found the courage to report Bails to the police.

    In court, Charity was forced to retell her entire history, including the time he laughed at her when she asked him to stop raping her. Bails was found guilty on multiple counts and given 30 years in prison.

    Romance with Vanessa

    While Charity previously explored a same-sex relationship with Zoe Tate, it was her relationship with Vanessa Woodfield that fans really brought into. They even earned the nickname ‘Vanity.’

    Charity’s barriers came down with Vanessa and she even proposed to her twice – on the second time her girlfriend said yes.

    Charity supported Vanessa through her battle against cancer and officially adopted her son, Johnny. But the old Charity resurfaced and, letting paranoia get in the way, Charity ended up snogging a stranger she’d met on the side of the road.

    Vanessa dumped Charity and left the village. Although she later returned, she couldn’t forget the betrayal. Though fans continue to push for a Vanity reunion.

    Love triangle and Damon Harris murder

    After falling for Mackenzie Boyd, Charity found herself in a love triangle after he got Chloe pregnant. Despite marrying Charity, after Mack was outed as Reuben’s father, he decided to begin a relationship with Chloe. But the feelings between Mack and Charity remained.

    This all came to a head during a famous Emmerdale stunt scene, when Mack chose to save Charity over Chloe, when the car they were in was dangerously close to falling off a cliff.

    Unfortunately for Mack, Chloe’s dad Damon ‘Harry’ Harris was a notable gangster and he took Mack hostage. Charity trailed Harry to a derelict warehouse where she saw his gun in hand ready to kill Mack. She attempted to wrestle the gun from Harry, but in the altercation it went off, killing Harry.

    In the aftermath, Charity had nightmares over killing Harry. In her confused state she almost ended up committing another murder after stabbing Mack.

    Who plays Charity Dingle in Emmerdale?

    Emma has had this role from 2000. Though both Emma and Charity were off screen for four years from 2005, before returning in 2009.

    During this break, Emma appeared in Doctors, Heartbeat, Casualty and Dalziel and Pascoe.

  • Viewers call for Vanity reunion as Vanessa reassures Charity following limo crash

    Viewers call for Vanity reunion as Vanessa reassures Charity following limo crash

    Last week in Emmerdale Charity was driving the limo that crashed onto the lake and killed three huge characters. One being her ex-fiance’s new girlfriend.

    Vanessa and Charity – or Vanity as they’re better known – stole fans hearts in 2018 when they officially became girlfriends. They went on to have one of the most adored love stories in Emmerdale – until it ended.

    While Vanessa was struggling with her cancer, Charity struggled to open up to her and turned to Mack for comfort. The couple went on to try to make their relationship work, but to no avail. But it seems viewers still haven’t given up hope that one day, they will reunite.

    Charity and Vanessa scenes send fans wild

    Over the last couple of months, there haven’t been too many scenes with the former couple together. But every time there is, fans go wild. And last night’s episode was no exception.

    After Suzy was killed on impact during the limo crash, Charity was blaming herself for the deaths. And Joe didn’t make it better when he made a sarcastic comment about her being responsible.

    But one person who certainly doesn’t blame the Dingle icon is her ex. When Vanessa appeared in the pub, Charity gave her a drink for free. And then took the chance to apologise for what had happened.

    However, Vanessa very quickly cut her of, assuring her that she was not responsible for the lives that were lost. Charity emotionally told Vanessa that she “always liked” her and Suzy together.

    And while the exchange was friendly, Vanity fans couldn’t help but think they may still reunite after all.

    Taking to X, viewers shared their happiness at the scene, and how they appreciated that it was Vanessa who eased Charity’s mind.

    One wrote: “After all this time, Vanessa is still reassuring Charity. She knows her. She knows Charity’s head would be spiralling. And she doesn’t want her to go through that.”

    Another applauded: “I was sure that Vanessa would at least partially blame Charity for the accident and Suzy’s death. So her explicitly saying it wasn’t Charity’s fault just reinforces my belief that deliberate choices are being made her.”

    A third penned: “Of course Vanessa is the first to reassure Charity. Vanity are coming back in the ring, everyone.”

    “Charity and Vanessa are SOULMATES,” another enthusiastic fan commented. While another wrote: “Poor Vanessa. Charity your woman needs you. Like now.”

    Charity is currently happily with Mack. But as we saw in the flash-forward at the beginning of the year, the future doesn’t seem to good for him. So if both Vanessa and Charity lose someone they love this year, could it push them back together? And with fans thinking Mary and Suzy may have been having an affair, will Vanessa turn to Charity in her time of need?

  • Emmerdale viewers beg for Charity and Kim to ‘team up and take Joe Tate down’

    Emmerdale viewers beg for Charity and Kim to ‘team up and take Joe Tate down’

    After last night’s episode (February 25) showed a determined Charity to see that Joe is bad news, fans are calling for them to unite and take the Tate bad boy down.

    Since Noah was spiked, Charity has been determined to get to the bottom of who was responsible. And after wrongly assuming it was Jacob’s friend Ritch, she has turned her attention to Joe.

    But Noah doesn’t remember much. Just vague images of his time in a hospital with bright lights and muffled speech. And everyone has convinced him that was the limo crash, however we know that’s not the case.

    What’s happened with Joe and Noah?

    Ever since Joe turned up he has been obsessed with mending his relationship with Noah. And while on the surface that seems sweet, the reality appears to be much darker.

    We know Joe has some secret health situation going on. But we still don’t know any other details as to what it is exactly. But he became desperate to get Noah to go to Dubai, and was furious when the plan failed.

    Then Noah just so happened to walk in front of the limo, causing Charity to swerve and three people to die. And it was evident Noah was drugged – and it was Joe who was responsible.

    Charity headed straight to Kim last night, and begged her to see that Joe hasn’t changed. And she even confessed that she knew the Home Farm queen didn’t trust him as she knew about the listening devices.

    While Kim defended Joe, there was a sense that not everything was as it seemed. And as two iconic women in Emmerdale, fans are begging for them to team up and take him down.

    Taking to X, one viewer wrote: “I think Kim will end up finding dirt on Joe and helping Charity.”

    Another gushed: “Kim and Charity teaming up would be the best thing in Emmerdale.”

    “Come on Kim, work with Charity and take Joe down,” begged another viewer.

    A fourth penned: “I am SO here for Kim and Charity teaming up against Joe. Queen’s unite.”

    Whether Kim and Charity team up remains to be seen, but one things for sure – with Charity on his back, time is running out for Joe.

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Chas wants to to to the police, Charity is onto Joe, and Noah’s in the dark

    Chas Dingle put forward a plan to go to the police over Anthony’s disappearance in Emmerdale tonight (Tuesday, February 25) – as she worried that warring brothers Cain and Caleb are about to ruin it for everyone.

    Elsewhere, as Noah blamed himself for the limo crash, Charity pursued Kim Tate in the hope of bringing Joe down. She knows that he spiked Noah… but can she prove it?

    Meanwhile, Moira confronted Ruby over her fling with Cain, and Vanessa turned to Mary for help.

    Here’s everything that happened on Emmerdale tonight.

    Cain and Caleb’s feud continued on Emmerdale tonight

    Bright and early, Cain paid a visit to Tracy on Frankie’s birthday. He handed over a gift he’d found on the doorstep from Nate. Questioning whether she’d heard from him, Tracy revealed he still wasn’t answering his phone, and had gone incommunicado since leaving the village.

    Unsurprising, given he’s currently chained up like Jason Voorhees at the bottom of a lake… but who’s sending Frankie birthday gifts?

    Cain then bumped into Aaron and Chas, who were concerned for Moira, undergoing radiotherapy with the stress of a cheating husband and a secret murder. Spotting Caleb with Kyle, Cain dragged his son away, and issued Caleb another warning. With PC Swirling hovering nearby, Chas ushered the boys back home for another hush-hush meeting of the murder cover-up club.

    In the Woolpack back room, Chas attempted to contain the situation. Her worries that their feud was going to collapse their carefully stacked house of cards fell on deaf ears, and the brothers continued to rage at each other.

    Moira had it out with Ruby

    As Matty and Moira returned home from an appointment, he questioned how Moira could be so forgiving of Cain. He knows nothing of the murder, of course – and just saw his mum as being uncharacteristically weak.

    Moira interrupted as Aaron begged Ruby to make Caleb see sense, sending him packing. She shared what Matty had told her earlier, then unloaded on Ruby for dragging her into a murder conspiracy when she should be looking after her own health and family.

    As the pair shared a glass of wine, Moira demanded to know why Cain, of all people. Ruby confirmed that she’d just wanted to hurt herself, without thought of others.

    Ruby begged Moira to forgive Cain and not throw away their marriage…. but will Moira listen?

    Chas wants to go to the police

    As Aaron filled Chas in on Moira’s visit, she continued to stress that the brothers were going to ruin it for everyone. She told Aaron that they needed to preemptively go to the police and save their own skin.

    Her plan was for Aaron to go to the police and admit that he’d had a run-in with Anthony, making himself look innocent and throwing the ball back into the others’ court.

    Will Aaron agree to go to the police?

    Noah struggled to put together the pieces

    Joe was making smug calls in the Woolpack, congratulating a mystery business partner on his latest deal. After being called slimy by Charity, he bit back, telling her that she seemed to be in a good mood given she’d just caused three deaths. Ouch.

    It was then that she told him that she knew he’d spiked Noah. He denied it, and accused her of making him her scapegoat to cover for her own guilt.

    Later, Joe paid Noah a visit – bringing gifts of crisps, beer and a PlayStation 5. Noah remained downbeat, still blaming himself for the limo crash. As Joe pressed whether he’d remembered anything from the experience, Noah confirmed that it was a total blackout, save for fleeting glimpses of a hospital.

    Charity begged Kim for help

    Kim was listening in on more of Joe’s audio recordings when Charity stormed in and again accused Joe of spiking Noah. She revealed that she knows about all Kim’s surveillance – and wanted help finding proof of what Noah had done.

    Kim was convinced that Joe’s a changed man, but Charity was having none of it. And, as Joe returned home, she once again warned him to stay away from Noah.

    Kim kept quiet about Charity’s true motives, but it was clear she was rattled.

    Vanessa turned to Mary in Emmerdale tonight

    Tracy and Vanessa celebrated Frankie’s birthday. Tracy was dismayed to find that Vanessa hadn’t bought her niece a present or card – but, to be fair, she’s had other things on her mind, with the death of Suzy.

    In the pub, Charity shared a moment with Vanessa, telling her that she’d always been fond of Suzy and liked them both together. in turn, she informed Charity that Suzy’s parents had begun funeral arrangements in her hometown. With the assembly restricted to close friends and family only (plus Vanessa), she asked Mary if she’d mind attending the funeral with her.

    Mary – who only moments earlier had been pining over a picture of Suzy – accepted without hesitation. Does she have an ulterior motive?

  • Emmerdale: Limo crash to lead to Charity and Ross affair, fans fear

    Emmerdale: Limo crash to lead to Charity and Ross affair, fans fear

    Fans of Emmerdale have predicted that the stress of the limousine crash could lead to an affair between Charity Dingle and Ross Barton. As the driver of the limo when it crashed into the ice-covered lake, the pressure is on Charity.

    Swerving to avoid Noah – stumbling through the road after apparently being drugged – Charity found herself responsible for three deaths. First Suzy, who was killed in the initial crash, then Leyla, who died of injuries sustained, and finally Amy, who had crashed through the ice while trying to escape.

    Emmerdale fans worry about Charity following limo crash

    Of course, none of this was Charity’s fault – if anyone’s to blame, it’s whoever drugged or spiked Noah. However, she’s clearly struggling with her guilt, and some have worried that this might cause her PTSD to return.

    And that’s not the only thing that fans think might make a comeback. One viewer has speculated that the trauma of the limo crash might somehow drive her back into the arms of a former lover – Ross.

    Will Charity cheat on Ross as her guilt continues to grow?

    Charity to cheat on Mack with Ross, Emmerdale fan predicts

    Writing on Reddit as last week’s episodes aired, one fan put forth their theory for a Ross and Charity reunion.

    “Maybe it’s wishful thinking on my part because I don’t like the Ross/Steph relationship, but do you think the limo crash will lead to a Ross/Charity hookup? Mack gets mad at Charity or Charity feels bad so she pushes him away, she runs off and then Ross is miraculously wherever she is? I don’t think they’ll stay together, but I think seeing the fallout would be fun,” this fan wrote in a thread on the social media site.

    However, others were more dubious.

    “I personally can’t see her cheating with Ross. If she was going to cheat would be with Vanessa and I can’t see that,” said a third.

    “Hope not. Charity has been the innocent one in her relationship with Mack unlike previous times. She has been fairly sensible recently, since the spiral after breaking up with Vanessa,” a fourth pointed out.

    How will Charity grow with the growing sense of guilt as the village mourns its losses?

    Emmerdale spoilers: Kim wants the truth about Joe as Noah’s flashbacks become clearer

    In Emmerdale spoilers for next week Kim doubles down on her mission to discover Joe Tate’s big secret, while Noah has an incriminating flashback to the night of the limo crash. Will he be the one to uncover his brother’s sick plot?

    Emmerdale spoilers: Joe continues to scheme

    Ever since Joe arrived back in the Dales last year it’s been clear he’s hiding something. But what that thing is, no one quite knows yet.

    In the space of a few weeks, Joe has managed to get his feet under the table at Home Farm, establish himself as Kim’s right hand man and seduce Dawn into his bed. He’s also been targeting Noah as part of a mystery plot, which saw him attempting to coerce the teen into accepting a job in Dubai.

    Charity wised up to Joe’s manipulation and Noah turned down the offer of a life abroad. But Joe did not take the news well and made a call, indicating he wasn’t finished with Noah. Events then took a frightening turn when Noah was found staggering in the road the night of the limo smash. He was taken to hospital, where doctors revealed Noah had been the victim of a drugging.

    A week on, and Noah’s recollection of that night is still a blur. Has Joe go away with it? Not if Kim has anything to do with it…

    What Joe doesn’t realise is that Kim is already onto him. She knows Joe is up to no good and has secretly bugged his room to try and learn the truth. So far Kim has cottoned onto Joe’s flirtation with Dawn, but what other secrets is she about to uncover?

    As the week begins, Kim checks her surveillance on Joe for any more leads. She’s interrupted by the arrival of a visitor to Home Farm, who voices their own suspicions about Joe. Kim is shocked by what she hears and defends Joe to the accuser, but it’s clear a seed of doubt has been planted in her mind.

    After luring Joe into a false sense of security, Kim summons Lydia. She explains she needs someone to be her eyes and ears, and tasks her bemused bestie with the job of spying on Joe. Once Kim once again expresses her desire to catch Joe out, as Dawn enters the room. But is she going to realise what’s been going on under her own roof?

    Noah edges closer to the truth

    Joe’s web of wickedness continues to unravel as Noah suddenly experiences a flashback to the night of the limo crash.

    Last week, Noah remembered he’d been a patient at a private hospital, but had no memory of how or why he was there. This time his vision contains potentially incriminating clues, which could put Joe firmly in the frame.

    Viewers already know that Joe is unwell and one dark theory is that he drugged Noah as part of a twisted plot to harvest his organs. Can Noah work it all out before he finds himself in further danger?

  • How many people has Charity killed in Emmerdale? From Damon Harris shooting to Leyla crash death

    How many people has Charity killed in Emmerdale? From Damon Harris shooting to Leyla crash death

    Charity Dingle is a good person – pretty much. And yet, as she pointed out earlier this week in Emmerdale, she’s killed quite a few people now!

    And she’s even been in prison for  murder, though to be fair, she didn’t actually do that particular crime.

    “Why do I keep killing people?” Charity asked Mack in an emotional episode.

    So we thought we’d take a look at the people whose lives she’s taken – in a roundabout way

    Charity killed Damon Harris

    Damon ‘Harry’ Harris was Chloe’s gangster dad. He inserted himself back in Chloe’s life when her relationship with Mackenzie Boyd fell apart.

    When Damon discovered Mack had left Chloe to die in the car accident – choosing to rescue Charity instead – he was furious.

    Desperate for revenge, he kidnapped Mack and held him hostage for days. Charity was convinced something was wrong, though and tracked him down. In the confrontation that followed, Damon threatened to shoot Mack. Charity tried to stop him and accidentally shot him instead!

    And Suzy Merton

    Of course we all know the drama of this week’s episodes that left Suzy dead. On Valentine’s Day, Charity was driving the limo full of over-excited women to their night out. But as she headed down the dark country lanes, Noah stepped out in front of the car!

    WHAT? What on earth was Charity’s son doing in a daze in the middle of the road? We still don’t know, but we do know that Charity swerved to avoid him, lost control of the huge car and plunged into an icy lake.

    Suzy was killed instantly in the collision.

    Charity killed Leyla Harding in Emmerdale

    Poor Leyla was a victim of the same collision, though she didn’t die instantly. She was stabbed with a broken glass as the car came to rest in the ice, and it took her a little while to notice what had happened.

    Leyla was alive when the paramedics arrived but she had lost so much blood that she died in the ambulance on the way to hospital. In heartbreaking scenes, her medical student son Jacob tried to resuscitate his mum, only to be pulled away by the doctor.

    Another death on Charity’s hands as Amy Barton passed away

    The week wasn’t done with deaths after Suzy and Leyla. Despite fighting hard and waking up long enough to utter “Nate, underwater,” Amy Barton did not make it.

    She had fallen under the ice while trying to escape the limo. Tracy had gone to pull her out and drag her to safety, but Amy was suffering severe hypothermia. Amy was rushed to hospital where they tried to gradually warm her up.

    However her heart just couldn’t take it and to the devastation of her husband, Matty, mum, Kerry, and son, Kyle, Amy died.

    Charity now has three deaths in a week on her hands.

    But Charity didn’t kill Chris Tate

    Chris and Charity were happy together for a little while. Their marriage was fiery and it definitely had its ups and downs, but they stuck together until Charity rekindled her romance with Cain. That was the final straw for Chris.

    So when he found out he had a fatal brain tumour, he began to plot. Knowing he only had a few months to live, Chris decided to take vicious revenge on his cheating wife.

    He was going to kill himself and frame Charity for the crime!

    The plan worked. Chris asked Charity round to reconcile and she came as he asked. He made sure her fingerprints were on a champagne glass filled with poison, and even made a secret phonecall to the police. As he collapsed and died on the floor his last word was “whore”! That’s brutal!

    Charity was arrested, tried and sent to prison for Chris’s murder. She gave birth to baby Noah in jail. But Zoe Tate – Chris’s sister – knew the truth. She agreed to sign a statement saying Chris killed himself if Charity gave her Noah.

    The deal was done, Zoe handed over the statement and the £10k Charity had asked for and Ms Dingle walked free.

    But eventually she fought to get Noah back and that £10k was burned by a disgusted Debbie.

    Charity didn’t have the cash, but she did have her freedom and her son.

  • Charity PTSD to return in Emmerdale following Leyla and Suzy deaths

    Charity PTSD to return in Emmerdale following Leyla and Suzy deaths

    Fans of Emmerdale have predicted that Charity Dingle‘s PTSD will return following the tragic deaths of Leyla and Suzy. Charity was at the wheel when the limousine crashed into an ice covered lake last week – having swerved to avoid son Noah, who was wandering deliriously in the road.

    As the car smashed into the frozen lake, Suzy was killed instantly – sustaining life-ending injuries. The soap later revealed that Leyla had also been injured in the crash. As those around her climbed to safety, poor Leyla was bleeding out – having been stabbed with something sharp when the car diverted from course.

    She passed out as it was just her and Kerry remaining. Although Kerry managed to drag her to shore, by then it was too late – and Leyla died in the ambulance, on the way to hospital.

    Two dead as Charity crashes limo

    And that’s not to mention Amy – whose life still hangs in the balance as she suffered a massive seizure last night. One can only imagine how poor Charity must be feeling, driving the car when two people were killed.

    Some have wondered whether this might cause her PTSD to resurface. Last year, Charity struggled with her mental health after killing gangster Harry, suffering a bout of PTSD which led her to stab husband Mack in all the confusion.

    Charity since recovered – but will the trauma of the limo crash cause it to return?

    Charity PTSD to resurface following ice limo crash

    Writing on social media, fans shared their thoughts on Charity’s future. And many agreed that tis might cause her PTSD to return.

    “As much as I don’t want another death on Charity’s conscience, I think it could be a way of revisiting her ptsd storyline which they seemed to have completely forgotten about and I for one, am absolutely fine with them revisiting. Raise awareness and that,” wrote one fan.

    “Just had a thought. I think something might happen again with Charity’s mental health,” said another.

    “No cause charity is going to be such a mess after all this isn’t she,” said a third.

    “Amid all the tragedy, I keep coming back to – poor Charity. What will this do to her?” asked another.

    What will the guilt of the limo crash do to Charity?
